wasd'ing 

pronounced both "W-A-S-D 'ing" and "wasding", this is simplj just an alternate and somewhat semi-1337 term to convey that someone is playing a first-person-shooter on a computer. this relation comes to existance due to the fact that in most fps games for pc, one must use the w,a,s, & d keys to move forward, left, back, and right, respectively. this could also pertain to third person shooters, certain platformers, and pretty much any game where there is an overhead camera which follows one significant character, being controlled by said wasd'er.

"hey Zach, is Levi over there wasd'ing again?"

"yeah, here comes Mr. Haygood. I think this is gonna be the third time he's been caught today..."

"hah, pwnd"

WASDing 

When a player in a video game is in a stressful fast encounter, so they spam the movement keys (wasd) in an erratic way to dodge incoming attacks. This phenomenon most common in bullet hell type games with a top-down point of view (ex. Diep.io, Realm of the Mad God, Undertale, etc.).

How is that a skill issue??? I was surrounded on all sides, all of the WASDing in the world couldn't have saved that run!
